Chapter 224 Sage walked along a path paved with white pebbles, feeling uncomfortable. Tiana was right.

She had overeaten.

lan noticed her knitted brows and figured she wasn't feeling well. He called Terry and asked, "Could you check if there's a drugstore nearby? Have someone getsantacids." Sage couldn't help but think of her previous life when she heard that. She used to have occasional stomach pains as a result of her excessive dieting. Ian happened to be at hthat night.

When she brought him a glass of milk, her stomach hurt so much that her face turned pale from the pain, and she almost spilled it. Yet, he didn't even ask her what was wrong. He simply asked her to leave.

Meanwhile, she hadn't made a sound just now, yet he noticed her discomfort and took the initiative to ask someone to get her smedications.

"It seems that men can learn to be attentive," she brooded. He had only been inattentive to her because he didn't love her. 1 Sage had also noticed his changes. He did seem to care more about her in this life compared to her previous life.

Even though she was still adamant about getting a divorce, she didn't see the point in harboring resentment toward lan. After all, in this life, he hadn't allowed Ivy to step all over her, nor had he neglected her. 1 "Why aren't you saying anything? Is your stomach still acting up? Do you want to go to the hospital?" lan asked as he walked over to her.

Sage shook her head. "No. I'm okay.' Then, she spotted Terry. He was wearing a coat and holding a set of car keys. He was probably on his way to get her santacids. "Mr. Zane," she called out to him.

Terry felt a sudden pang of panic when he noticed Sage. After all, lan had given him a death stare, as if he had made a serious mistake while he was reporting to him yesterday morning.

He racked his brain and thought of everything he had done since he joined Holcomb Corporation, but he still couldn't figure out how he had offended his boss.

He only figured it out when lan asked him, "What would happen if you were hit by a wine1/2 bottle?" Trembling and confused, he answered, "I would... get injured?" "Won't the person who takes the hit for you get injured?" lan shot daggers at him.

Baffled, he gathered his courage and asked, "Who would take the hit for me?" "Sage," lan responded.

Terry was so startled that he dropped the documents he was holding onto the table, almost knocking over lan's coffee mug. His voice quivered as he stuttered, "M-Mr. Holcomb, how could M-Mrs. Holcomb-" "Don't you dare show your face in front of Sage ever again," lan ordered. "If you see her, take a detour!" Terry didn't dare to disobey him. Hence, he tried to blend into the background when he learned that Sage would be at the team-building event.

He didn't go to the large swimming pool and stayed away from the hot springs that the girls liked to visit. He even kept his distance from Sage during mealtimes. However, she still spotted him.

Sage was standing in front of him at the moment. He couldn't avoid her even if he wanted to. "Mrs. Holcomb, do you need something?" he asked, uneasy.

Sage responded, "Givethe car keys. I'll go to the drugstore myself so you don't have to make the trip."

Terry glanced at lan, who was standing behind her with an om unreadable expression. "I'm sure you don't know your way around, Mrs. Holcomb. Letgo instead." "It's okay. I still need to get a few other things." "I can get them for you, Mrs. Holcomb.

"No, it's alright. I'd rather go by myself." Terry was still hesitating when lan said, "Givethe keys and go upstairs."

"Yes, sir!" Terry immediately let out a sigh of relief and practically stuffed the keys into lan's hand before bolting away.

Sage couldn't help but ask lan, "What did you say to Mr. Zane? Why does he act like he's seen a ghost 1. Zane? Why does sed whenever he sees me?" X
